Personal RSS Aggregators

Jon Udell writes about Personal RSS Aggregators for Byte.com

Has RSS run out of steam? Quite the opposite. There's more action than ever, but it's shifted into a decentralized mode. That's just what the RSS network needed to do in order to truly operate at Internet scale.

A good article about RSS and how the publish/subscribe model is slowly changing how the web works, and how information flows. Jon also goes into detail about some of the RSS aggregator tools available today.

Flash Enabled Phone Dialer

Phillip has posted the source for a Pocket PC Phone Dialer (zip download) featured in the Flash Enabled book.

Here is a great example of what you can do with Macromedia Flash MX and the Flash Player 5 for Pocket PC. It's a phone dialer that stores numbers using cookies..

Pocket PC, Mobile Devices, Innovation

Here is a request Phillip, could you get permalinks on your blog soon, pretty please? :-) Its really hard to link to a spesific story at Flashenabled as it is now.

Flash sites: Thinking in Flash

David Doull's Urbanev: Thinking in Flash is an interesting site, found it because he has started linking to me (thanks David).

David is a brilliant Flash developer, responsible for such great projects as the award winning - as well as great example of a very useful use of Flash in an application - smallblueprinter

I like Davids writing style, I think he would do good with a weblog - it wouldn't have to be just two words and a link or two you know David :-) For now he is using his site to write longer articles, with a little more meat than the regular weblogs. His latest article is about "Compontents and Conformity", its a good read!

I Hope to see more writing from David in the future.

More Flash MX resources at Macromedia.com

Mike has a new list of new content about Flash MX now available on the Macromedia.com site.

There is a lot of good content there, including a couple of articles regarding usability, Featured Community site (as reported earlier today), a user survey, and last but not least John Dowdell's "JD Forum". John lets us under the blanket to see what Macromedia is doing to help finding the information you want easier at the Designer & Developer Center.

I have to tip my hat *g* to John for linking back to the Flash blogs, much appreciated John! :-)
